Very nice, local to NoCo, place to hike. One of NHs hidden gems. Multiple ways to enjoy these trails too... Digging, hiking, waterfall bagging! Not too far from Thompson Falls though the switchbacks en route were a bit arduous. I strongly suggest doing your research before trying to find Thompson Falls. It can be difficult and confusing with all the trails there. I cant wait to back and see it in the different seasons!
Easy trail, great for kids. However you may want to leave them behind if you are serious about finding some nice, fully intact gemstones. It requires putting your time in and having patience.
Cool place to look for rocks.Dont go super early though its kind of creepy when youre the only one out there
Nice walk, about 2 miles round trip. Relatively easy trail although there are a couple of spots that you will need to slow down on to get through safely. Could be a need to cross over water at certain times of the year. The mineral site itself wasnt that impressive on its own. In warmer weather it could be more entertaining especially if you take a hammer and chisel as well as a bucket of backpack to carry out any interesting finds you may come across.
Awesome place to go during this time there are very nice and helpful people
Great hike to the mineral site almost 4 miles round trip. After almost 2 hours of digging and finding smokey quartz kids didnt want to leave.
Really beautiful hike through the forest
Great place to do some climbing. Enough to keep those skilled entertained yet plenty of beginner routes. Scenic surrounding area
Canr find much here anymore
Beautiful place....beautiful mining site...trails well maintained

Have a great.time there plenty of crystals great exercises
I found smokey quarts in a small rock pile
A nice place for a walk.
Great time. Take your hammer, chisel and eye gear. And a backpack to carry out your treasures! Great Smokey quartz. Hike in to site about 2.5 miles.
We didnt find the waterfall & trail not well marked
I enjoyed it very much. The trails were excellent and everyone is friendly and nice.
Good hike but the bugs where amazingly horrible worst I have ever dealt with def bring bug spray and is a bit of a challenge wearing flip flops
Interesting and easy walk.
Well kept hiking trails not to over crowded
Love
